Jolene’s 99 Cents Only Shopping Trip 11/20

Thanksgiving’s almost here, and I’m thankful for another year of bargain-shopping at the 99 Cents Only Store! It’s helped my budget immensely, and it’s so easy! No coupons, no hassles. Simple deals on fresh produce & name-brand items, like these today, all $1:

Need a Thanksgiving side dish? A Frugal Find favorite is Julia’s recipe for Sauteed Brussels Sprouts with Bacon! Today at the 99 Cents Only Store on Clayton Road, I was bewildered at this Brussels Sprouts Stalk! It looks like a Dr. Seuss tree, and sure enough, the Brussels Sprouts are growing on the stalk. A fellow shopper clued me in that these Brussels Sprouts Stalks go for $3.99 each at Trader Joe’s. Turn it into a learning activity for children, and let them to help make Julia’s recipe! The Kraft String Cheese 12 pk for $1 is a super deal, and it also contains a coupon for $3/$10 Any Crayola purchase, too! String Cheese is a perfect boost of protein/energy when I’m out shopping on Black Friday.
